A top Northern Irish amateur boxer has confronted accusations made in a video circulating on social media.

Conor Wallace, a six time All-Ireland Champion, was met by a vigilante group outside the Canal Court in Newry.

The middleweight is also well-known for working with UFC Superstar Conor McGregor during a 2016 training camp.

A video viewed thousands of times online shows the boxer facing accusations from a vigilante group.

In a video posted publicly on his Facebook account, the 21-year-old said that he has ‘not been arrested or charged’ and said that the matter is now with his legal team.

In the video, he said: “To whom it may concern, you may well be aware of the videos circulating on Facebook of me being confronted by a group of men and women at the Canal Court Hotel in Newry after being lured there this morning to train a man who contacted me on Snapchat called Darren O’Neill.
